MTL - I Became the King of Villains In the Game-Chapter 406 Fountain of agelessness
"Abducted by a monster?"
Lutina held the double-barreled shotgun at her feet, stood up and asked with a frown.
"What the **** happened?"
"Yes...it's the rat people! Groups of rats, they not only attacked us, but also captured Gray!"
The boy Oslo said with a painful face while covering the claw wound between his chest and abdomen.
I saw blood flowing from his fingers, and the wound was obviously deep.
Lutina turned around and took out alcohol bandages and other medical supplies from her backpack, and handed them to Mesia, a girl with glasses and short hair, and asked her to bandage the wounds of the other injured students.
Immediately afterwards, she asked a few students about the appearance of the so-called rat man, and the students answered honestly.
"The Ratmen... What you encountered should be the Tamara Ratmen, but their gathering place should be in the deepest part of the Coleridge Forest. How could they appear near here?"
She analyzed with a sullen face, and then looked up at several students.
"Are you still hiding something?"
Several people in Oslo looked at each other, and finally answered dryly:
"We searched for it according to the location marked on the treasure map, and indeed found the 'Fountain of Youth'... But we didn't know that the spring had been occupied by the Ratman."
"We originally planned to secretly drink two bottles and leave, but we were discovered anyway."
Afro Boy Stiller added.
"Greedy and ignorant..."
Lutina shook her head.
The faces of the four students turned blue and red, extremely embarrassed.
While Chen Lun on the side heard their conversation, he frowned.
"Fountain of Youth?"
"Well... the treasure map says that that kind of spring water has the power to make people live forever. Just take a sip, and you can stay young forever and live for several epochs."
The short boy, Anel, glanced at Chen Lun, and explained softly, no longer hiding anything.
"You also believe this kind of nonsense."
Lutina sneered in disdain, but she obviously had no intention of explaining, she just carried a double-barreled shotgun and said:
"After all, you also paid the money, I have to be responsible for your safety... Hurry up and pack up, if you are really injured and can't move, just wait here, you send someone to take me to see."
"I'll take you there, I'm not hurt."
Mesia, the girl with glasses, said.
Lutina nodded.
At this time, the couple also heard the movement and came over. They were surprised to see the group of students covered in blood.
"Oh my sun! What's going on here? Have you encountered a beast?!"
"It's a rat man scarier than beasts!"
Oslo bared his teeth in pain, and said while sitting on a stake.
"What rat man?"
The couple was in shock.
Stiller, the afro boy, had no choice but to explain to them again.
"There are such species in this world? It's incredible!"
The husband of the couple was surprised.
And his wife heard that a girl had been kidnapped, and she was eager to help, but unexpectedly, her husband grabbed her and warned her in a low voice.
There was a little conflict between the two. The wife seemed unwilling to see her husband's cowardice, while the husband was worried about his wife's safety... In the end, the husband chose to compromise and agreed to his wife to help find the female student.
"This is the brave man I know, Pat."
The wife kissed her husband on the cheek and said softly.
Chen Lun became a little interested in the "Fountain of Youth" that the students said. Just as the cow Antonio returned from the woods, Noah also put away the drawing board and came over. He explained the situation to the two in a low voice and planned to go and have a look together.
Noah and Anton naturally would not refuse, saying that they would follow the leader closely.
So except for the three students who were seriously injured, they stayed in the hunter's hut to rest. Lutina, the couple and Chen Lun all followed the girl with glasses, Mesia, into the woods.
Mecia's character looks relatively calm, but after all, she is still very young, and she has just experienced being attacked by the rat man, so she inevitably shows a nervous expression.
"Miss Lutina, do you still have the rest of your firearms? If you only have one double-barreled shotgun, I'm afraid you won't be able to defeat the group of ratmen... There are thirty or forty of them!"
Mejia said as he walked.
Lutina curled her lips, took out the machete from her backpack and handed it over.
"Here, only this."
Meiya took the knife with a little disappointment. After thinking about it, she handed the knife to Chen Lun.
"Sir, this is for you to use, I am weak and can't play its role."
Chen Lun smiled slightly, but shook his head and refused.
He raised his silver cane, indicating that he didn't need it.
I thought to myself, this girl is a bit smart... On the surface, what she said is indeed reasonable, but in fact, whoever holds a weapon should be at the forefront.
Mejia is protecting himself indirectly.
"A cane? Well...then this knife is for you to use."
She turned her head and handed the knife to the husband of the couple, who readily accepted it.
With the knife in hand, he felt he could better protect his wife.
Soon, everyone passed through the dense woods and came to a clearing.
Not far ahead, there is a spring with a diameter of four to five meters surrounded by three crooked trees. The water inside is extremely clear and seems to exude a strange fragrance.
Around the spring, dozens of rat people gathered.
They hunched their bodies and looked only about 1.2 meters. They had no clothes on their bodies, but they were covered with dirty dark brown short hair... But what was surprising was that some of them held weapons in their hands like humans.
Or self-made wooden spears, or forks and hatchets picked up somewhere.
Chirp chirp!
When the Ratman discovered the arrival of the crowd, he suddenly exploded like a pot, and rushed over on guard. They screamed, bared their teeth, and brandished their weapons.
"Don't be afraid! The Tamara Ratmen are mentally retarded and like to bully the few with the more, but they are actually extremely weak. Just kill a few of them and they will disperse!"
Lutina said coldly.
Her petite body stood at the front of the crowd, directly raised the gun and pulled the trigger.
Boom!
The flames suddenly appeared, and the projectiles splashed forward, directly bursting the head of a mouseman.
The powerful impact of the double-barreled shotgun even sent the mouse flying several meters away.
Boom!
Another gunshot.
At such a close range, it was difficult to empty the gun, and the other mouseman's chest and abdomen exploded, flying upside down and dying miserably.
Chirp chirp!
The Rat Man screamed wildly and surrounded him.
Lutina had to open the gun body to reload after firing two bullets. Mesia, who was standing next to her, retreated behind the crowd in fear, thinking of running away if the situation was not good.
The palms of the husband holding the kukri were sweating. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw his wife's expectant eyes, stepped forward bravely, and swung the weapon at the rat man.
Unexpectedly, just as soon as one was hacked to death, another mouse scratched its arm.
"what!"
The man let out a cry of pain.
Another two mice threw him to the ground, and opened their mouths wide, ready to bite his scalp.
The man was so frightened that the knife in his hand fell to the ground.
Both his wife and the schoolgirl Mesia screamed.
Chen Lun couldn't see it, sighed secretly, walked over and swung his cane casually, and killed the two mousemen lying on the man's body with two bang bang bangs.
Immediately, he winked at Noah.
The latter understood the meaning tacitly, took out the drawing board, picked up the brush and started painting.
I saw him lift the paintbrush and wave it lightly, and several mousemen lost their breath while running, and fell directly to the ground, with no visible wounds on the surface... In fact, their spirituality has long been swallowed by [Gallery of Bones].
Plop!
Plop plop!
One after another, the mousemen died inexplicably, and everyone couldn't help being stunned. Even the group of mousemen companions also realized that something was wrong, and quickly turned around and ran away screaming.
"Chasing! Follow them to find the girl who was taken away!"
Lutina loaded the bullet, but didn't shoot. Instead, she took the shotgun and chased after her, and said to everyone.
The man who fell to the ground was lifted up by his wife, and he apologized guiltily and angrily.
The crowd followed Lutina and chased after the fleeing rat man.
Halfway, Lutina glanced at Noah with great interest, and praised:
"Your painting is really good, can you show it to me later?"
Noah glanced at Chen Lun, saw that he had nothing to say, then nodded with a smile.
"no problem."
Lutina stopped talking and ran forward with a sullen face.
Soon, everyone chased the mouse to a burrow, and vaguely heard a woman calling for help from inside.
"Inside...Leave one person outside to guard, let's go down."
Lutina turned her head and said to everyone.
"Me! I'll stay!"
Mejia volunteered.
Lutina seemed to see her timidity, but she didn't refuse, she nodded and agreed.
"Since this is the case, you will guard outside, and we will be back soon."
After she finished speaking, she walked down the cave first.
Chen Lun let the cow Anton also stay on the surface, because it is too big to go down.
The tunnel passage was narrow and extremely dark. Lutina took out a kerosene lighter and lit it in front, and everyone followed behind one by one.
Soon, the field of vision widened, entering the hinterland of the cave.
The cave is damp and disgusting, full of sour smell, and there is a thick layer of decaying substances on the ground, mixed with some dead branches and bone fragments, it is not known whether it is human or animal.
Chirp chirp!
Some hairless mouse people who were still young were lying on the ground, wriggling slightly, and a girl with tattered clothes that could barely cover her body was thrown into the pile of mice, with a terrified expression, almost insane.
"help me!"
The girl was the missing Grey, and she yelled in panic.
Everyone stepped forward to see that under the light of the fire, her hands and feet had been bitten off, blood was spilled all over the ground, and the little mouse kept sucking her blood on the ground.
"Those mice...they still want to... woohoo!"
Grey broke down and cried, obviously because everything she experienced made her unacceptable.
"Although I haven't heard of the Tamara Ratman mating with humans to reproduce, but judging from their strong desire to reproduce, it's not like they won't do this kind of thing... Luckily for you, we arrived in time."
Lutina shook her head and said to Gray.
She retrieved the machete from the man's hand, hacked all the little mice on the ground to death, then took off her coat and wrapped it around Gray.
"Which of you men help me, take her out...she can't walk anymore."
Lutina turned around and asked.
"Let me do it."
The husband of the couple, under the gesture of his wife's eyes, stepped forward bravely and carried Gray behind his back.
Then everyone returned the same way and came to the entrance of the cave.
Seeing that his companion was rescued, Mesia was very happy.
But seeing Gray's injuries, she couldn't help clenching her fists again.
"Those damned rats, they're disgusting!"
"How can there be such a monster in this world, such a big mouse, and walk upright like a human..."
The man is puzzled.
But Lutina was not interested in answering this question, she just strode forward and said without looking back:
"This is the Great Forest of Coleridge. Why do you think the empire listed it as a restricted area? Because there are countless terrifying things that ordinary people have never seen before! The Tamara Ratman is actually nothing, if you meet other people Weird thing, I hope you won't be scared to death..."
The couple looked at each other, and they both saw panic on each other's faces.
"How about... come back later, we don't want to go further into this forest."
Lutina shook her head and pointed to the sky.
The sky at this moment has dimmed, and it looks like it's evening.
"It's getting dark, it's not easy to travel at night, and it's more dangerous... and there are so many wounded now, we can't go back unless we leave them."
Lutina said.
When Mesia and Gray on the man's back heard this, their expressions changed slightly and they denied it.
"no!"
"Please don't leave me behind!"
Grey burst into tears.
When the wife of the couple saw this, she quickly comforted her.
"Don't cry, we won't leave you alone... Well, let's stay at the hut overnight and return early tomorrow morning."
"Thank you...thank you, kind lady."
Gray said weakly.
Chen Lun took Noah and Anton with him, and did not speak from the beginning to the end.
He is actually quite unfamiliar with the Coleridge Forest, and he has never set foot here in his previous life. Now it seems that there are indeed many secrets hidden in this forest...
'According to Lutina, there should be many extraordinary creatures like the Tamara Ratmen... and the Fountain of Youth, what is it? '
Chen Lun was a little curious.
Taking advantage of the chance that they would pass by the Fountain of Youth once again when returning the same way, Chen Lun took out a water cup from the blood poem ring, walked to the spring and bent down to scoop a cup.
【Extraordinary: Fountain of Immortality】
Item Description: Spring water that contains vitality, has the effect of healing injuries, and can slightly alleviate the aging of the appearance, and increase the life span of three to five years.
‘It seems that there are indeed some effects, but it is far less exaggerated than the description... No wonder Lutina showed a look of disdain when she heard the Fountain of Youth. '
Chen Lun was a little disappointed.
But even so, this spring water is still quite valuable.
So he took out several iron buckets and filled them with 800 liters of the fountain of youth before turning around and leaving. Everyone was very surprised when they saw his movements and the sudden disappearance of the iron bucket.
But Chen Lun obviously had no intention of explaining, so everyone could only bury their curiosity and shock in their hearts.
Among them, Mesia also followed him, and filled a bottle when she ran to the spring water. Looking at her annoyed expression, it is not difficult to guess that she was unwilling to carry the container she was carrying was too small.
"Let's go quickly, this spring can't run away, it's not too late to come back later and pretend."
The husband of the couple exhorted.
However, Lutina smiled, she turned her head and said slowly:
"It's not certain, maybe it will really run away soon... After all, there are all kinds of strange things in the Great Coleridge Forest."
The man's eyes widened, and he quickly winked at his wife. The latter hesitated for a moment, then took the small water bottle that he carried with him, and went to fill a pot of water from the fountain of youth.
"You can give her a drink, the spring water should be able to heal the wound..."
Lutina said to Messia.
The latter was slightly taken aback, then hesitated for a few seconds, opened the bottle anyway, and gave Gray a drink.
Sure enough, the girl's severed hands and feet healed slowly, no more bleeding, and she could barely walk on the ground.
Seeing this, everyone was shocked by the effect of the spring water, and their eyes burst out with more desire.
Chen Lun watched all this coldly, shaking his head secretly.
